Harpoon ANW Platform Images

Hi All,

I'm just testing the water here and really seeking some feedback to decide if this is worth the effort.

After seeing several users post comments in regard to "missing platform images" I was wondering if people were interested in me providing continued support for what I call the ANW image library? I have since completing the initial image conversion been adding to the collection available for use with the HUD3 although these additional images have yet to be made available to the community.

An example of the additional images I am prepared to make available is the case of Submarine platforms. I believe there are only 6 submarines that feature an available image with the default installation for display using the Harpoon Media Viewer, whilst I have an additional 24 image sets prepared, making a total of 30.

I am happy to commence a new thread where I will post the unreleased/additional image sets, as Matrix Games have been generous enough to allow for a 5MB maximum file upload per post, I would be using this forum for the distribution of the required files specifically the Mods, Databases and Scenarios forum hosting the files as I post them.

So all I really need is an expression of interest from even a handful of people and I'll get to work on providing instructions and the required files as soon as I receive some notification of interest in this offer.

Cheers

Darren

I would like it, from what I have seen so far, it makes for a better game. I like the DB and Pic stuff.

I suppose receiving at least one response will make it worth the effort, stay tuned and I'll start to organise things so even the silent majoriy can grab them.

Cheers

Thanks Guys,

I've started uploading individual image zip files for each Submarine Platform. I'll be adding the additional Aircraft and Ship image zips shortly. If people would also like to see a few examples of the files I'm including in the Zip packs, I'd be happy to upload a few image files here for viewing.

Cheers

Darren

I've even added new H2 image types where they didn't previously exist.

What about an "expansion" Pack, I mean that literally in regard to the size of the images. Originally AGSI needed to limit the size of the files as I found more and more. I wondered if a 800x600 pixel standard was of interest?

CH-47 Chinook again, this time at 800x600 pixels.

Oh the Chinook is sweet! Like I said the DB is one of the Best Harpoon features. I was playing some of the old HC games form the HUE and was in heaven...even the older stuff was good (HC ver1.0). :)

Is there an ETA on the zip package?
or are we going to be endlessly teased with really nice individual pics?

Gents,

I've started the Submarine thread here:

tm.asp?m=2678360

Each platform has its own entry, and I'll add a listing of the images (the index) as soon as possible. I'll also be expanding the thread to cover Aircraft and Ships.

Cheers

Darren
